The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has extended the reporting deadlines for manufacturers of certain chemical substances under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). Originally set for March 13, 2025, the new deadlines are June 11, 2025, for vinyl chloride and September 9, 2025, for 15 other chemicals. This change was made to allow companies more time to comply with the reporting requirements due to unexpected difficulties and to ensure that EPA receives necessary health and safety data to evaluate and manage potential risks these chemicals may pose. The extension does not alter the existing requirements but provides additional time for better compliance and guidance from EPA.
